When Satisfaction Is Something To Be Bought

Young men who live in cities
live as if they own those places,
but they never have and never will.
They are little boys in bodies
that are enlarged by appetite and choice.
Their vanity is a given.
With enough money they can have a sex drive
to match, and the consequent thirst for property
(something that is more difficult to secure).

But they will also have
a shrunken attention span
for the gentler detail of life.
